fic: sticks and stones may break my bones (but words will never harm me) (the 100, bellamy/raven)

[lackadaisicalnereid]

sticks and stones may break my bones (but words will never harm me) | the 100 | bellamy/raven | 150 words | for upupa_epops for the Jordan's Birthday Jam: A Clarke/Bellamy/Raven (The 100) Comment Ficathon which is awesome and you should be there instead of whatever you may be doing. Marta is awful and she prompted: I don't even like you. Marta, I don't even like you. There.







At least three days a week she looks at him while he's working on something or other and says you're an idiot in a soft, truthful, idiotic, cold sort of way and he stops whatever he's doing and looks at her and makes a little pause and clears his throat, as if he thinks if his pronunciation is just right when he asks her, she'll tell him the truth at least this once, and nothing but the truth, so help him God, but then she looks away or says something unrelated to anything, and even if he doesn't say them, she still twists the words on his lips until they come apart, until he comes apart and breaks into pieces and then she's the only thing left standing in the ruins of him and he looks away, he has to, and he sighs quietly and thinks something like tomorrow. I'll insist tomorrow.



(He doesn't.)
